Rumour GFC 2017 Player Trading, Drafting, FA, Rumours, and Wish lists - PT2

[catempire]

Can you remember him impacting games this year?

Yep. Still a very handy player. At times I wished we had him (as dirty as that made me feel).

Just hurry up and give it to us so we can try to wheel and deal our 35 and 41 into something kewl.

It will be in the last hr if it gets done due to gibbs and kennedy deals i think. Gc have list spot issues so they probably want to try and upgrade a lower pick (s) and ablett to a higher pick, unless we are trading a 2018 2nd/3rd rnd. Be interesting to see what happens.

In the brownlow he had the 5th highest votes per game for the entire league.

Sam mitchell gets plenty of brownlow votes and was traded for a late pick.

Yes, but West Coast weren't dealing with Hitler's Nazi Germany.

The people spruiking Ablett's BnF win from 14 games haven't worked out that this says more about how shit the GC list is than it does about Ablett's brilliance.

Ablett was also 4th in the coaches votes after round 17 despite having missed a couple of games already at that point (he only played 1 more game).

Great achievement! Please keep in mind that I'm not saying he wasn't good when he played.
I just think his BnF win says more about how shit his team mates are.

lol
He's a bit better than Billie.

While i don't think such references are appropriate GC seem very difficult to deal with.

 

[blueinvasion]

Also glade 2e has been great as cats a team I like

Lang will be a gun, we really dont want to lose him, great pickup for you guys.

2nd/3rd rounder he is better than smedts.

TR has exclusive vision inside Etihad tomorow.

I think I’m going to take the day off, always love deadline day.

He’s been a fringe player for us, shows glimpses here and there.

Only 21 and has footy smarts, he’ll do well at the blues I think, a better all round player than Smedts that’s for sure.

Again, I'm not saying he didn't play well.
I just think it's a disgrace that no one else in the rest of the team could get more votes in an entire season.
It's the club BnF! They HAVE to give votes to players every match. It's not like the brownlow where the opposition might get the votes.
No Sun's player was consistently good enough relative to their team mates to get the points.

So, you like the Cats huh?
Cripps for Lang it is then.

 

[dazbroncos]

IF blues get 10 and 16 I think I saw....

How about Lang and 21 for 16....

We keep 19 and get 16.

So
16, 19, 35 and 51.

Go Catters

He’s no Billie Smedts, that’s for sure.


(Interpret that any way you like )

As much as I like it I think it may be slight overs.

But wait there's more.

I'm not sure they do have to give votes every week. Wiki seems to suggest the coaches can just not give votes if they want. Anyway I just saw he won with 126 votes with second place on 104. That's a crazy margin for such a short season from him. I guess then going 6-8 with him in the team and 0-12 without him would have something to do with that.

It's disingenuous to keep bringing up that he was just the best out of a very weak team.

He was ranked high in the coaches award. Meaning he was not just competing with his own team, but with all players in the league. And he did pretty well.

Despite being in a team that was regularly losing and finished bottom two, he was getting coaches votes. So he was considered to be one of the better players when compared to members of the losing team and the winning team on the day.
